That Spain draw was pretty consequential because if they finish second in Group H, they'll probably face *Argentina* in the Round of 32. Now, a 37% chance of that matchup happening.

The most insane pitching performance I have ever seen.
Jacob Misiorowski allows 1 hit, faces the minimum and strikes out 15 on under 100 pitches

There are no comparable starts in MLB history

The World Cup absolutely mogs every other sporting event. It’s what the Olympics wishes it was X100.

You’ve got Europeans road-tripping across America and having their minds blown by Buc-ee’s and Bass Pro Shops. You’ve got a small Kansas town falling in love with an Algerian club that chose Kansas City as their homebase. You’ve got South Korea training in Utah to prepare for the altitude in Guadalajara.

For one month, the whole world forgets we’re supposed to hate each other over differences that barely matter. It’s the closest thing we have to world peace.

I know it’s said every World Cup but the fact that China and India still can’t qualify even with an expanded tournament when they have a combined male population of around 1.5 billion is kinda nuts.

If the @ChicagoBears and Hammond were smart, they would lean into this gritty, industrial vibe.

Decommission some of the industrial infrastructure, move it around, give it a bit of the Wrigleyville treatment and this could be something authentic and unique.

One thing I think golfers take for granted is growing up with the game.

Not just because they’re probably better than the average weekend golfer. I’m talking about the intangibles.

When you grow up around golf, you absorb things without even realizing it. The mindset required to play well. Course management. Practice habits. The little lessons and unspoken rules that come from years of being around the game.

I never learned how to recover from a bad shot. I never thought about choosing a shot based on the next shot I’d be most comfortable hitting. I never realized my entire putting process was costing me strokes.

Those are all things people on here have taught me.

When I ask questions, I’m genuinely trying to learn the things you can’t learn from a golf lesson. The stuff that golfers who grew up with the game often take for granted because it’s become second nature.

I’m going to keep learning, and I’m fortunate to have connected with good people on here who are willing to share what they’ve learned.

I appreciate you all.

A guy calls his broker and asks about egg futures.

Broker says they’re at 25 cents.

Guy says, “Alright, buy me 100 contracts.”

A week later he calls again.

Broker says, “Good call. They’re at 35 cents now.”

Guy gets excited and buys 1,000 more.

Few days later, he calls again. Eggs are at 50 cents.

Now he thinks he’s a genius, so he buys 100,000 contracts.

Next day they’re at 65 cents. He buys a million.

Then they’re at 95 cents. He buys another million.

Then $1.25. He buys another million.

Next day, eggs are trading at $1.75.

He finally thinks, alright, this is probably enough. Time to take profit.

So he tells his broker, “Sell 2 million contracts.”

After a long silence, broker finally says:

“Sell to who? You’re the egg guy.”

@citrini What it means for the Korean economy and people when Samsung and SK Hynix are about to pay $430 BILLION in taxes in FY26-28.

That's half the Korean public debt.

Milwaukee has snow on their field for half the year, and practices at the main student gym on campus.

Auburn can play outside year round, and has a 10k sqft baseball specific facility that cost ~$5 million.

The Panthers are America’s team.

Tom Brady reveals the overlooked reason practice squad players never succeed in the NFL

It’s not a lack of talent.

Brady watched it happen for 20 years. The pattern was undeniable.

As soon as a practice squad player got promoted and had to perform under real pressure, they crumbled. It took years for Brady to understand why.

“There’s 53 guys on the active roster and there’s now 15 guys on the practice squad. So there’s 68 players. But those practice squad players are important because if anybody on the active roster gets hurt, they can get elevated to the squad.”

“These scout team receivers would come in and practice with the scout team and they do really well. And I’d be watching. I’m like, ‘Man, we got to get that guy. Let’s get him up on offense. He’s making a lot of plays.’”

“Then all of a sudden, we’re like, ‘Hey man, you’re doing really well. You got to come over here and deal with the pressure of succeeding now that you have expectation.’”

“And these guys are like, they weren’t prepared for it. So whatever we saw in practice against where there was not a lot of pressure, now when they’re put in a situation where there’s an expectation for performance, they’ve never had to personally deal with that and then they fail.”

“And then what I realized was a lot of guys on those practice squads, they don’t want to be elevated to the roster.”

“They’re very happy living this life where they could tell their family and friends, which I have no problem with that. But the reality is a lot of guys don’t want the pressure of dealing with top.”

Twenty years in the league and seven Super Bowl rings later, Brady learned that talent wasn’t the hardest thing to find.

It was people who actually wanted the pressure that comes with being great.
